When Andrew was about 3 he said he wanted a dirt bike, so Andy had told him that he could get one for his 5th Birthday....we didn't realize how quickly the 5th birthday would come...but it is almost here. Daddy has done a lot of research, shopping, and Craigslist hunting the past couple months. He found Andrew a little dirtbike which we will actually give him on his actual birthday, but decided that he needed something to ride to keep up with the boy. He ended up buying this quad from a friend at work. He brought it home last week and the boys were so excited. They had bought a trailer a couple weekends ago but the boys were convinced he was bringing home new bunk beds for them in the trailer. "it's the perfect size trailer for bunkbeds" Andrew would say. They were jumping up and down screaming when daddy came driving down the street. Poor daddy had a little trouble starting it and once he got it started he did something wrong with the gas and the gears and the quad took off. All the neighbor kids were out watching and I seriously thought he was going to plow through the neighbors window. He made a sharp turn on their grass and left some pretty nice tire marks and eventually got it stopped on their driveway. That was all the riding for that day and he decided to push it back on the trailer and wait for a big grass field to learn to drive. The boys didn't care at all, they love just sitting on it and looking at it in the garage. Grandpa cam eover today and drove it around...the boys thought it was great and I think grandpa enjoyed himself just a little. We can't wait for the many fun family adventures with our new toy..I'm sure there will be some great stories as well
